It is a guarenteed high speed connectivity with their two high speed access solutions, the first being the 'Dedicated Internet Access' product which is best if you need more connectvity within your city and bandwidth usage rather than a lot of international use in which case you could chose their second option being the 'Internet Premium'. Vodacom helps you gain more with fast, reliable internet connectivity and being able to transfer high data capacities. They have many access medium options such as microwave, satellite, diginet and fibre.

Question 5 & 6 - UTF- 8 Encoding

UTF stands for uniform transformation format and the 8 means that it uses 8 bit blocks, which is 1 byte, and this symbolises each character. The number of blocks that is needed to symbolise each character ranges between 1 - 4. UTF is a compromise character encoding. The nice thing about UTF is that no character will have zero bytes when it is encoded. UTF will always be a compatible encoding system as long as there are no characters longer than 127 presented directly.
